They'd have more money now if they didn't skimp on ships 400 years ago. Gotta play the long game my dudes

Europe can be delegated to figuring out how to improve metrics such as "quality of life" and "privacy" while the United States tries to figure out everything else like landing rockets and how far we can take LLMs

At least we have a real example of landable rockets.
